It has been rumored for some time now that Nokia was working on tablets, even before the whole agreement with Microsoft emerged. There has been talk that a new tablet may be forthcoming this year. Aside from these patent drawings, we know precious little about what might make the devices tick, or have a real measure of their dimensions.

One of the designs is definitely reminiscent of the Nokia N9 or Lumia 800 and 900. The other design appears to be a bit more traditional, yet both would seem at home in Nokia’s offering.

That these patents were granted back in 2011, and that have seen nary a peep to feed the rumors, it seems highly unlikely that either of these would make a splash with the release of Windows 8. Based on Elop’s comments last month however, it would be somewhat safe to say that Nokia will have a tablet offering, but probably not right away while the company concentrates on the handset and mapping businesses which will yield the biggest bang for the buck.

I like the design of Nokia N9/Lumia series, I think tablets based on this design would look awesome. Last pic in the slide makes me wana have one right away :). My only wish would be to some how mod it to make it a dual boot with W8 and Ununtu #Awesome.. :)

I would be the first to buy this tab if they release it! I love the gorgeous design and Nokia quality is an added plus :)
Imagine this tab complete with cellular radio, expandable memory, CBD layer and Nokia exclusive apps. This will sell like hot cakes if prices competitively.

The design is beautiful....
but what will be the weight of this tablet and how thick it will be????
Nokia is not able to produce slimmer and lighter phones....if it remains same in tablets then nokia's 7 inch tablets will weight as much as samsung's galaxy note 10.1 cuz nokia lumia 920 weights as much as note 2....
